JIM LINDGREN: “Personally, I would prefer that, should Obama clearly pivot on what to do in Iraq, he not be attacked by either the left or the right for flip-flopping, but rather commended for responding to new realities. After all, he is likely to be President, and the earlier he takes a more mature position on the war, the likelier he is to stick with it. Indeed, that Obama has been so slow even to begin changing his position is a worrisome sign.” So the biggest problem for Obama is that he hasn’t flip-flopped soon enough!

Thank God I’m not running for President.
